Saint Louis University – Globally Recruit

Saint Louis University’s mathematics program combines the features of both small and large schools to create a compelling educational experience. Students can expect a student-friendly environment, with math courses for majors being small in size and taught by regular faculty. Faculty get to know students and provide individual attention. Students are recruited for participation in math contests and other opportunities, including part-time positions as graders, tutors and learning assistants. Like a large school’s program, math at SLU also has enough breadth to let students tailor their upper-division math courses to their interests and goals.Learning Outcomes-Graduates will be able to demonstrate conceptual competency in foundational areas of mathematics by developing problem-solving skills and solving problems in these areas of mathematics.Graduates will be able to demonstrate an ability to write and comprehend mathematical proofs using both direct and indirect methods.Graduates will be able to demonstrate an ability to analyze data and perform appropriate statistical analyses.Graduates will be able to demonstrate an ability to write computer programs that implement mathematical or statistical algorithms.Graduates will be able to demonstrate an ability to communicate mathematical ideas and concepts both orally and in writing.Graduates will be able to demonstrate an understanding of at least two advanced, in-depth topics in mathematics or statistics, including at least one topic in pure mathematics.
